New

I feel as though I am getting overwhelmed by how many lists & groups I am a part of online so I thought I would try and create something easier and more basic, something like this blog. At the moment I don't have much to develop but I want a place to check in with family & friends.

Currently working on what will be my last show in Chicago for a year, we speed quickly toward that scary place called OPENING and I am already feeling that twinge of sadness, that post-pardon depression that always seems to overtake my once the show opens and no longer belongs to me. It's bitter-sweet and always a bit of a relief but I find myself confused by basic tasks like navigating my life. Luckily I am producing a Performance/Gallery traveling show this summer to keep me busy until I leave town for a while.

Speaking of which, AUSTRALIA AUSTRALIA AUSTRALIA! I am going to Australia, Melbourne to be exact, to direct show for their Fringe Festival and then spend some time traveling the country before going to visit another friend in Thailand and catch up on my shadow puppetrey skills and my desperate need for relaxation. I've been functioning at an absurd level since graduation and I believe it is time for a break to recharge. How can I possibly keep creating "out put" if there is never any time put into "in put"?

This is part of why I wanted to create this place, where I can put down how these experiences affect me and let everyone know I am still alive, safe and happy.

That's all for now.
